Apparatus for displaying a flying object

Abstract

In an apparatus for displaying a flying object, an air flow is created in a duct by a group of blowers. A holding line is attached to a lightweight flying object, and movement of the lightweight flying object is restricted by the holding line. By making the lightweight flying object fly in the air flow, the lightweight flying object is able to fly even in a small space.

1. An apparatus for displaying a flying object comprising:
 a space forming unit defining a flying space;  
 a blower for creating an air flow in the flying space;  
 a flying object for flying in response to the air flow in the flying space;  
 a connecting unit connected to the flying object, including a holding line restricting the flying object in the flying space; and  
 a controlling unit for controlling flying of the flying object by changing length of the holding line.  
 
     
     
       2. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 1 , wherein the controlling unit controls at least one of the length of the holding line and the air flow in reacting to a change in external surroundings of the apparatus. 
     
     
       3. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 2 , wherein the controlling unit controls at least one of the length of the holding line and the air flow in reacting to at least one of sound and light. 
     
     
       4. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 1 , wherein the controlling unit controls at least one of the length of the holding line and the air flow based on a signal. 
     
     
       5. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 1 , wherein the blower creates the air flow by rotating a fan blade, and the controlling unit controls the flying of the flying object by changing the air flow by controlling at least one of rotation rate, rotation direction, and timing of rotation of the fan blade. 
     
     
       6. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 1 , further comprising at least three blowers arranged serially so that an inner blower is positioned lower than outer blowers. 
     
     
       7. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 1 , wherein the blower is a double reverse blower. 
     
     
       8. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 1 , wherein the connecting unit includes a guide unit in the flying space having a hole which the holding line passes through, and the flying object flies with an edge of the guide unit as a fulcrum. 
     
     
       9. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 8 , wherein the connecting unit changes position of the edge of the guide unit by moving the guide unit. 
     
     
       10. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 1 , wherein the blower is located within the flying space and circulates gas in an inside of the flying space by creating the air flow in the flying space. 
     
     
       11. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 1 , wherein the blower forms the flying space of the flying object together with the space forming unit and outputs the air flow to one of inside and outside of the flying space. 
     
     
       12. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 1 , wherein the space forming unit includes a partition dividing the flying space into a plurality of sub-spaces. 
     
     
       13. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 10 , wherein the space forming unit includes a partition having a hole through which the gas flows. 
     
     
       14. The apparatus for displaying the flying object of  claim 11 , wherein the space forming unit includes a partition having a hole through which the gas flows. 
     
     
       15. An apparatus for displaying a flying object comprising:
 a space forming unit defining a flying space:  
 a blower for creating an air flow in the flying space;  
 a flying object for flying in response to the air flow in the flying space, wherein the flying object includes a fuselage having an axis of an airframe, defining a center of the flying object, a plurality of wings, and a plurality of reinforcing members joined to and increasing strength of the plurality of wings, and wherein the plurality of wings is joined symmetrically with respect to the axis of the airframe; and  
 a connecting unit connected to the flying object, including a holding line restricting the fling object in the flying space.
